WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesThe film is inspired by a very controversial experiment that took place in Sweden in 1948. The reason behind it was the severely declining dental health. Due to this, a project funded by the state was put in place with the purpose to examine the connection between a carbohydrate intake and caries. During the run of the experiment 660 persons with disabilities were fed high doses of sugar. The result of the study showed a correlation and Sweden was known worldwide for proving this. However, the study was conducted against all guidelines regarding existing research ethics of that time. Guidelines that were established during the Nürnberg trials after WW2.
Ausgewählte Rezension
A very sad (and true) story where we follow the intake Johanna at a home for people with learning difficulties around the 1940s. She's being one out of many to take part in an experiment eating unusually large amounts of sugar and fat. This was done in order to make a correlation between calories to caries resulting in declining dental and overall health for the participants who weren't even able to give their consent.
The film has a slow pace, following a classic Swedish style. The acting is good and credible, especially from the patients. In its core it's a story about friendship and love behind the cold reality where pride and a discrimination against the mentally challenged gets to decide what's right or wrong.
